ROBSON, _British Herald_, 1830:--
"Lozenge, a four-cornered figure, differing from the fusil, being
shorter and broader. Plutarch says that in Megara [read Megura], an
ancient town of Greece, _the tombstones under which the bodies of
Amazons lay_ were of that form: some conjecture this to be the cause
why ladies have their arms on lozenges."
